Biography

U.S. Southern Colonies Project logo
Keziah (Moberly) Meadors was a Maryland colonist.

Origins

There is no known birth record for Keziah Moberly, daughter of Edward and Susannah (Unknown) Mobberly. Estimated dates of birth vary from about 1743[1] to about 1747[2] Keziah was most likely born in Prince George's County, Maryland, where her parents were living at that time.

Marriage

Keziah married Thomas Meadors[3][2][1], possibly around 1760-1762 (based on estimated birth dates of probable children), probably in South Carolina, where both were living at the time.

Death

No record of Keziah's death is currently known. She was still living in September 1826 when she appeared in Court in Whitley County, Kentucky to acknowledge her deceased husband's deed of sale of property to their son Pleasant Meadors and to relinquish her dower rights in said property.[4]

Mobley-509 and Moberly-274 appear to represent the same person because: Many of same siblings; Moberly is preferred spelling of name in this generation; date of birth should be "about" unless reliable (based on research in original documents) source is provided.

Unmerged match with Moberly-10

These two profiles have more in common than not, but birth date, place, and mother are issues. Sources may be the solution. Once these are resolved, would be nice to see these merged and cleaned up.

Thanks!
